Types of Garage Doors
There are many types of garage doors to suit all kinds of homes in San Antonio. From sectional garage doors to sleek aluminum or glass garage doors, each offers its own benefits in style, durability, and space efficiency. Choosing the right door depends on your home’s layout, design preferences, and functional needs. Below are the types of garage doors we can install for you.
Tilt Up Garage Doors
Found in older San Antonio homes, tilt up garage doors feature a one-piece solid door that tilts up into the garage ceiling. While minimalistic, it doesn’t maximize space.
Side Hinged Garage Doors
Side hinged garage doors are a great choice for low-ceiling or limited-clearance garages. They offer a unique, classic aesthetic and are easy to open manually, combining style with everyday convenience.
Roll Up Garage Doors
Normally used in commercial spaces, roll-up garage doors are perfect for small or detached garages. The door consists of narrow but durable slats that roll up easily into a coil.
Sectional Garage Doors
Sectional garage doors, made of panels connected with hinges, are a popular choice for modern Texas homes because of their durability and insulation options.
Carriage Style Garage Doors
Carriage style garage doors look like old-fashioned swing-out doors but work like modern overhead doors. Often made from wood or steel, this design is great for rustic-looking homes.
Aluminum & Glass Garage Doors
With a sleek frame and clear or frosted glass panels, aluminum and glass garage doors are popular in modern and urban San Antonio homes. If you want something eye-catching and low maintenance, this design is for you.
Insulated Garage Doors
More of a feature than a door type, insulated garage doors are available in most styles (like sectional garage doors). These are energy-efficient and can lower your power bills during the hottest and coldest days.
Custom Garage Doors
Custom garage doors can help you meet certain design preferences and constraints. You can choose the material, get a unique size, and install functional add-ons like insulation or storm protection.
Reasons to Install a New Garage Door
Getting a new garage door is a smart way to improve your home's look, comfort, and safety. While roll up garage doors can help save space, aluminum and glass garage doors can easily boost curb appeal. If you are still unsure, the following reasons should change your mind.
Boost Curb Appeal
Getting a new garage door is the quickest way to elevate your home's exterior. A modern garage door, the right colors, and the perfect finish can easily transform how your house looks from afar.
Increase Home Value
Replacing an old garage door with a new design boosts curb appeal and increases home value—a simple, smart upgrade that will yield a strong return on investment when it’s time to sell.
Better Energy-Efficiency
Modern garage door designs come with excellent insulation and sealing features. This helps lower the heat (or cold) entering your garage, ensuring it and surrounding rooms stay cool (or warm) and comfortable.
Improve Security & Safety
Newer garage door models, such as aluminium garage doors, are made from stronger materials. These also come with tamper-resistant technology, including garage door openers and motion sensors.
Improve Reliability, Reduce Maintenance
Old garage doors are known to be unreliable, noisy, and always need repair. With modern garage doors, you will enjoy smoother operation, less noise, and warranty coverage.
Our Garage Door Installation Process
Our garage door installation process is simple and clear.
We ensure you get the best garage door for your home—both functionally and aesthetically—while also staying within your budget.
We maintain open communication every step of the way, staying transparent so the final result meets your expectations. Here’s how our process works.
1. Consultation & Planning
We begin by scheduling a consultation to discuss your vision, preferred garage door style, desired features, and budget. During this visit, we’ll also inspect your existing garage door and provide tailored recommendations.
2. Design & Planning
Once we understand your goals for the garage door installation, we’ll present premade designs that best suit your home. If none catch your eye or you have specific needs, we’ll offer custom design options instead.
3. Material Selection
This is a crucial step, especially if you are having a custom garage door made or include certain add-ons you want to install, like garage door openers or garage door insulation.
4. Construction & Installation
Once we have the design and the features you want added, we'll then install your new garage door. Our team ensures precise installation for smooth operation, safety, and lasting performance.
5. Quality Assurance
Our garage door installers ensure your door is installed correctly and operates smoothly. We’ll keep you updated throughout the process and perform a final check to confirm everything meets our quality standards.
6. Final Walkthrough & Completion
Once installed and the desired features are added, we’ll schedule a final walkthrough for you to inspect your new garage door. If you're happy with the outcome and have no changes, we’ll call the project complete.
